You enjoy CSH? That's genuinely kinda surprising given basically all of Will's music is thematically centered around young-adulthood. That gives me hope that I'll still relate to some of my favorite records nowadays when I get old, lol.

Here's some great 2019 listening that any CSH fan can get behind:

Jangle pop out of the midwest. Very warm and lovable.

Remembering The Rockets by Strange Ranger

Somewhat strange, very emotive alt-country/jangle/midwest-emoish indie rock. Reflective lyricism.

just gave babybluesedan's other pick Painted Shut by Hop Along a listen. Pretty good. Nothing earth shattering, or particularly original. Probably won't dig deeper into their work. 6/10

I think the only thing I've really done to combat this was to spend much of 2018 listening/reviewing about 200 albums of 2017 to find out 79 I liked. Sometimes the 2010s feels like the era of thank god we no longer have record execs shoving things down our throats anymore, but now we get to basically do their job and sift through 800,000 pounds of gorilla shit to find the banana.

Either that or go listen to the radio.

How does it feel to play catch-up, because I think thats what a lot of people behind the curve feel like discovering things and consuming things is.

I'm not sure if there's a question there or a statement...

Took babybluesedan’s suggestion to listen to Kurt Vile’s Wakin on a Pretty Daze. Reminded me of Wilco out of the gate. Overall a pretty good listen. Really liked the lyrics and the trippy country sound. 7/10

Listened to both of Tilly’s suggestions this morning.

Really liked Parquet Courts a lot! Love that post punk sound. Reminded me of Gang if Four and Modest Mouse. Great lyrics too, need to give it a closer listen one day. 8/10

Mac DeMarco - 2 was good. Like the chill/space vibe. Really great understated guitar work. 7/10

Starting with Parquet Courts - Light Up Gold. So far it’s great! I’ve heard a few songs by them pop up in Spotify and they’ve been on my radar for awhile.

This site has already turned me on to a couple of modern artists I’m really digging. Specifically Car Seat Headrest and Courtney Barnett.

Who else from this century should I be listening to?
